Chapter 63

"Second Brother!" As he was talking, he saw the little princess get up happily, and waved his hands outside. As soon as Shen Ruyi turned her head, she saw Liu Ershao, the fourth prince and others coming in, followed by a few people, Shen Ruyi Ruyi knew each other, each of them was nobler than her, one was the sixth princess who was held in the palm of the hand today, one was the little princess of the third prince's family, one was the eldest daughter of Jining Hou's family, and the other was the sixth prince.

Several people entered the pavilion, Second Young Master Liu said with a smile: "You two will find a place, it's very warm here, and it happens to be facing the plum grove, it's great not only to enjoy the scenery but also to talk."

The fourth prince glanced at Shen Ruyi, then turned to talk to the sixth prince: "Sixth brother, you are not in good health. After walking for a long time, your face turned pale when I saw you. Sit down and rest, the people around you What about it? Did you bring your daily medicine?"

The sixth prince coughed lightly, smiled and shook his head: "It's not a serious problem, but it's been a long time walking, and I can't bear it, just sit for a while, and I don't want to take medicine for the New Year's Eve. "

The fourth prince frowned: "Is there really nothing wrong? I don't need to call the imperial doctor to take a look?"

The sixth prince shook his head and turned to look at the little princess: "Mingzhu, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I find that you look better as you grow older. This is your new friend? You are as beautiful as Mingzhu."

The name of the little princess is very straightforward. She is the jewel in the palm of the eldest princess and the heart of the empress dowager. When the sixth prince asked her, she smiled and said, "Sixth cousin, you are getting more and more handsome. Let me introduce to you, this is a good friend I just met, her name is Shen Ruyi, she is the daughter of Lord Shen Hou, the Marquis of Guangping."

Shen Ruyi greeted the sixth prince with a smile, and the sixth prince hurriedly raised his hand: "There is no need to be too polite, since you are a good friend of Mingzhu, you are also a good friend of mine, so you don't need to pay attention."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Ying, the daughter of Jining Hou's family, laughed and said: "You are the daughter of Lord Shen? I know you, the person who has lived in Daming Mansion for more than ten years, you just came back from Daming Mansion , Is this the first time entering the palace? Have you walked around the imperial garden?"

It was very similar to the questioning of the little princess Liu Mingzhu just now, but one was curious and the other was ridicule.

Shen Ruyi nodded with a smile: "Just now the little princess took me around the imperial garden, it's a pity, it's winter, and only plum blossoms can be seen in the imperial garden. If you are lucky enough to come in spring, summer and autumn Watching it will definitely make people linger."

Cao Ying curled her lips, but did not answer, and turned to talk to the little princess of the third prince's family. This third prince is not the elder brother of the fourth prince, but the elder brother of the current emperor. The third prince only got this small county in his forties. My lord, I love you like pearls and treasures on weekdays, and the little princess she loves seems to have her eyes on the top of her head.

Li Changan glanced at Shen Ruyi, curled his lips in disdain: "I see, you are not so lucky. The Imperial Garden is not something anyone can come to if they want. Even if someone guides them, they can't come in at will."

As the princess, one is the eyeball of the eldest princess, and the other is the lifeblood of the third prince.One is a person with a foreign surname, and the other is a clan girl.Ordinarily, compared to Liu Mingzhu, Li Changan's status is more valuable.But it is a pity that Liu Mingzhu is the granddaughter of the empress dowager, and Li Changan's grandmother died long ago.

Whether the status is valuable or not depends on bloodlines, but the power in the harem depends on how high the backer is.

Therefore, Li Changan finds Liu Mingzhu very unpleasant, and Liu Mingzhu naturally doesn't like Li Changan anymore. Hearing Li Changan's insinuation against Shen Ruyi at the moment, Liu Mingzhu is a little unhappy, even if he beats a dog, it depends on the owner. It's my good friend, Li Chang'an just said such a thing, it really didn't give him face.

As a result, Liu Mingzhu was not happy: "Indeed, anyone who wants to come to the Imperial Garden can come here, but who makes Ruyi my good friend? If Ruyi wants to enter the palace to have a look, I, a good friend, have to give it to me anyway." Ruyi leads the way, right? I'm not like some people who have to pass a sign when entering the palace, and my grandmother doesn't want to see her when the time comes, and she won't even accept the sign."

Li Changan's expression changed. Although her father was a prince, he couldn't say a word about the harem.Although her mother is a princess, she is not the empress dowager's own daughter-in-law, and she doesn't usually enter the palace much.If she wanted to enter the palace, she really had to hand in the sign in advance.

Liu Mingzhu was different. The Eldest Princess could enter the palace at any time. Liu Mingzhu followed the Eldest Princess, so she could enter the palace whenever she wanted. Even the empress would not easily stop the mother and daughter.

"Princess Mingzhu, don't be fooled by the villain. I see, this village girl from the countryside must have taken a fancy to Princess Mingzhu's identity and wants to curry favor with Princess Mingzhu." Cao Ying Taking a disdainful look at Shen Ruyi, she hurriedly persuaded Liu Mingzhu: "It's not worth standing up for this kind of person."

Although Liu Mingzhu was young, she knew that if she repented at this moment, she would be rebellious and make people laugh.Immediately, she lifted her chin and looked at Cao Ying disdainfully: "You and Li Changan play together every day, your status is not as good as Li Changan, are you trying to curry favor with Li Changan?"

Cao Ying's face turned red immediately, which was embarrassing. Shen Ruyi found out that she had secretly glanced at the fourth prince!Could it be that Cao Ying actually likes the Fourth Prince?After thinking about it, it's really possible. Cao Ying is 17 years old this year, so she should be engaged, but now she can go out with the fourth prince and the others, obviously she is not engaged.

Although the fourth prince is cold-blooded, his appearance is first-class, and he often has a smile on his face. He is gentle and capable. He just escorted a batch of grain and grass to the border half a year ago. It can be regarded as both civil and military, how could no girl like it?
It's just a pity that Cao Ying's intentions will be wasted in vain.

In front of the sweetheart, one should never be ashamed. Cao Ying was embarrassed, and immediately raged: "Princess Mingzhu, please be careful, you are young, I am afraid you can't tell the difference between people's hearts. Chang'an and I exchange handkerchiefs. Although my family background is not as good as Chang'an's, we are about the same age and have similar interests. What we say on weekdays is also whispered at our age. Chang'an is good at writing poems, I am good at composing lyrics, Chang'an is good at painting, I am good at writing, and we The two play together, can draw and practice calligraphy, can connect words and sentences, can guess riddles and laugh, but what about you?"

Cao Ying glanced at Shen Ruyi with disdain: "Don't say that Miss Shen is several years older than you, Princess Mingzhu. You must say something different on weekdays. You only say that Miss Shen is from the countryside, and you don't know whether she can read or not. Well, how can you two talk together?"

"For example, Princess Mingzhu, you said today that you ate a dish of fish in the palace, which was a pearl soup made of whitebait. I'm afraid that Miss Shen can't discuss with you how delicious this fish soup is and how to make it. , you can’t even tell the taste?”

"Also, Princess Mingzhu, you occasionally got a good book, and you want someone to discuss it with you. Miss Shen, can you talk to me?" Cao Ying laughed, and Shen Ruyi thought, If it wasn't for the presence of the fourth prince, Cao Ying's expression would have been even more exciting.

Liu Mingzhu's face was flushed with anger, and when she was about to speak, Shen Ruyi patted Liu Mingzhu's hand lightly, and looked at Cao Ying with a smile: "Miss Cao, how do you know that I can't read? Pearl soup is actually made with whitebait. The fish balls are so-so, but the best one is gold-thread fish, oh, Miss Cao, do you know what gold-thread fish is?"

Cao Ying really didn't know, and Shen Ruyi explained with a smile: "Golden silk fish is also called Baiyun mountain fish. It is a kind of fish that grows in the sea. It grows very beautiful. It can not only be eaten, but also watched. It's a pity that it can't be raised in the capital. of."

Shen Ruyi also used it several times in the palace with the fourth prince in her previous life, and when she was assigned to it, it was only a little bit, just one sip, not a little bit more.Even a concubine like her can only eat pitifully. Who did Cao Ying marry in her previous life?

"Speaking of reading and writing, I learned my handwriting from my father, and my father also said that I have three parts of his charm." Shen Ruyi said embarrassedly, and everyone present, especially the men, were a little surprised look.

Up and down the court, who doesn't know that Lord Shen's handwriting is so good that it's hard to find?Shen Ruyi, a girl, has three-point charm of Shen Houye, and it's not just the level of literacy.

"By the way, some time ago, I just got a fragmented volume called Ten Continents. Has Ms. Cao ever read this book?" Shen Ruyi asked with a smile: "There are 28 volumes in that book, and I only read it. Among the 22 volumes, there are six volumes that have never been seen, and it is unknown who has the fragments of this book."

Cao Ying's face was even more ugly, but it was the sixth prince who suddenly became interested: "Have you read Ten Continents? Which volumes did you read?"

"The sixth, ninth, No. 18, No. 20 one, No. 20 two, No. 20 eight volumes are missing." Shen Ruyi's face did not change much, and the sixth prince's face was slightly reddish, slightly excited: "I It happens to have the sixth and No.18, but I'm missing the eighth volume and after the twentieth volume, I don't know Miss Shen..."

He was a little embarrassed as he spoke, and touched his nose with his hand, feeling embarrassed: "If Miss Shen is worried, you can have someone copy it out. Is it okay if I just look at the copy?"

Liu Mingzhu probably felt that Shen Ruyi slapped Cao Ying in the face and gave her face, so she said enthusiastically, "Sister Ruyi, do you like reading books? That's great, my sixth cousin has a lot of books. , if you want to see it, I will find it for you."

Shen Ruyi was a little embarrassed: "Is it okay?"

Liu Mingzhu nodded vigorously: "Of course, don't worry, if the sixth cousin doesn't have it, we'll go to the second brother's study room. There are also many books in the second room study room. Would you like to come and play at my house? My study room is very big."

The sixth prince is a little anxious, hey, don't forget about me, that girl from the Shen family, is the exchange of books that we just agreed on going to work?Give me an answer.
